I am a Jamaican citizen, who often visits the US at least 5 times per year on vacation and would like to open an account with your bank. What documents are required for me to open an account?

Dear Natasha,
I would also like to open a US account for personal use as a non-resident. By the nature of my work (airline crew) I come to US occasionally and I often shop on-line however some shops/retailers don't accept non-US debit cards. Therefore I'd like to open a convenience checking account and deposit some money. Since I do not reside nor work in the US, therefore I do not possess any US documents, if I understood your explanation properly I will be able to open the account by visiting your branch and bringing the following 2 documents with me:
1. Non-US passport
2. Foreign Driver's License with Photo (Non-US)
Is that correct or did i understand it wrongly?
Thanks and regards,
Dusko

Welcome to the conversation, Dusko. We're excited to see that you're looking to open an account with us!
As a Non-US resident, one of the required forms of identification is a Non-US passport. The second form of identification must be one of the following:
- Employment ID with Photo and Signature - State Issued ID or Driver's License with Signature - Foreign Driver's License with Photo - US Employment Authorization card with Photo, Signature and Expiration Date - College ID with Photo - Alien Registration Card with Photo - Permanent Resident Card with Photo
With that being said, a foreign driver's license with photo would be accepted.
Once you're close, you may stop into any of our Store locations to open your account. We invite you to view our Store locations and hours by clicking here: http://bit.ly/TDStores. If you have any questions in the meantime, you may call us at 1-856-751-9000 or collect with operator assistance from a land line phone by asking the operator to dial 1-215-569-0518.
We hope this clears up any confusion, Dusko. Have a great day!
